De Volmaakte Weg* is heel makkelijk,
behalve dat hij geen kiezen en verkiezen duldt;
enkel aan wie vrij van haat en liefde is,
toont hij zich ten volle en onvervalst.
Een haarbreed van verschil in je oordeel,
zal hemel en aarde van elkaar scheiden;

PHILOSOPHY

To do no evil;
To cultivate good;
To purify one's mind:
This is the teaching of the Buddhas.
--The Dhammapada

"Practice lovingkindness to abandon ill will.
Practice compassion to abandon cruelty.
Practice appreciative joy to abandon discontent.
Practice equanimity to abandon aversion.
Practice contemplation of the body to abandon lustful craving.
Practice contemplation of impermanence to abandon the conceit 'I am'.
Practice mindfulness of breathing; for when maintained
in being and well developed, it brings great fruit and many blessings."
- The Buddha

4 Noble Truths
1. Life means suffering.
2. The origin of suffering is attachment/craving/grasping
3. The cessation of suffering is attainable.
4. The path to the cessation of suffering is the Noble Eightfold Path.

Democracy don't rule the world, You'd better get that in your head; This world is ruled by violence, But I guess that's better left unsaid!

-Bob Dylan-

Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.
Anais Nin

To be upset over what you don't have is to waste what you do have.
